Depends how you drive it but the lowest I average is around 22mpg, the best is nearly 30.

Good point, neither am I on the MY06 and certainly MPG improved on my 95 classic after mapping, so perhaps mine isn't representative

We've got a Jeep Cherokee 3.7 V6 Auto and a 2006 STi Spec. D PPP, and the STi is definately averaging better mpg at about 23 - 24.

Our Jeep also only achieves a woeful 17 - 18, but great family wagon and useful for all the building work on my house, and quite a relaxing alternative to the STi.

I always seem to go between 20/22mpg, had it down much lower than that when having some country road fun mind, much lower.
